3. Key Features
3.1. Three-Mode Digital Display & Speed Control
The fan supports three adjustable speed gears: Low (600-1300 RPM), Medium (600-1700 RPM), and High (600-2100 RPM). A power cord lever allows for convenient switching between these modes, adapting to various cooling and noise requirements. The axial circular digital display screen provides real-time fan speed (RPM) and mode information.

3.4. Efficient Cooling with Low Noise
The fan provides an air volume of up to 61.54 CFM. Its 28mm thickness enhances air pressure (Positive pressure 3.18mmH₂O, Negative pressure 2.89mmH₂O), ensuring effective cooling. Despite its performance, the operating noise level is maintained at a low 29 dBA, balancing quiet operation with cooling efficiency.

5. Installation Guide
The Interstellar V4 fans feature a building-block splicing design for simplified installation.
- Preparation: Ensure your PC case has adequate space for 120mm fans. Identify the desired mounting locations (e.g., front, top, rear, bottom).
- Splicing Fans: Align the fans at a 45-degree angle to connect them. Gently press them together until you hear a click, indicating a secure connection. This method significantly reduces wiring complexity compared to traditional fan installations.
- Mounting: Secure the assembled fan unit to your PC case using the provided mounting screws. The fans feature hidden screw holes for a cleaner appearance.
- Connecting Cables: Connect the 4-Pin PWM cable to an available fan header on your motherboard or fan controller. Connect the 5V 3-Pin ARGB cable to a compatible ARGB header on your motherboard or ARGB controller for lighting synchronization.
- Power On: Once all connections are secure, power on your computer to test the fans and lighting.

6. Operation
The Interstellar V4 fans offer flexible operation modes:
- Speed Adjustment: Use the power cord lever to switch between Low (L), Medium (M), and High (H) speed modes.
- Digital Display: The integrated digital display on each fan shows the current RPM and the selected speed mode (L, M, or H).
- ARGB Control: If connected to a compatible ARGB header, the lighting effects can be controlled via your motherboard's software or a dedicated ARGB controller.

7. Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and extends the lifespan of your fans:
- Dust Cleaning: Periodically clean the fan blades and housing to prevent dust buildup, which can impede airflow and increase noise. Use compressed air or a soft brush.
- Cable Management: Ensure all cables are neatly routed and secured to prevent interference with fan blades or other components.
- Inspection: Occasionally check for any loose connections or unusual noises.
8. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
- Fan Not Spinning:
- Check if the 4-Pin PWM cable is securely connected to the motherboard or fan controller.
- Ensure the power supply is functioning correctly.
- Verify fan settings in your motherboard's BIOS/UEFI or fan control software.
- No RGB Lighting:
- Confirm the 5V 3-Pin ARGB cable is correctly connected to a compatible ARGB header.
- Check your motherboard's ARGB software or dedicated controller for lighting settings.
- Ensure the ARGB header is enabled in your motherboard's BIOS/UEFI.
- Excessive Noise:
- Clean any dust buildup on the fan blades.
- Ensure the fan is securely mounted and not vibrating against the case.
- Check for any cables or obstructions interfering with the fan blades.
- Adjust the fan speed to a lower setting using the power cord lever.
- Digital Display Not Working/Flickering:
